System Information
Operating system: Manjaro Linux
Graphics card: NVIDIA 3080 ti

Blender Version
Broken: 3.5.0 (Steam Version)
Worked: 3.5.0 (Blender.Org Version), 3.4.1 (Manjaro Version)

Short description of error
Default Scene crashes when adding Geometry Nodes and "Mesh To Volume" Node.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Open Blender ( in Steam !).
  2. Switch to Geometry Nodes Tab.
  3. Create new Gemoetry Nodes.
  4. Create new "Mesh to Volume" Node and put in in between.
  5. Blender freezes and crashes.

I've added a file that I created with Blender 3.4.1 and crashes 3.5 (Steam) on opening.

  • It only breaks when I start Blender directly from Steam, like starting a game.
  • When I start Blender directly from the directory (even from the Steam-dir) it works.

I think it's official?

=> https://store.steampowered.com/app/365670/Blender/

Steam is a Gaming platform, shop, launcer. But Blender is also available there, according to the page, it's official. The nice thing here is that the distribution and updates are handled complete automatically - that is why I like it.

And okay - it's not just my system. Other people seem to experience something similar:

What do you mean with "Is it still working after crash?".

Blender just crashes for me. i can reopen Blender and can do it again, and it crashes again. I was able to create that attached blend-file with a different version (not through steam) and it crashes when using the Steam-Launched version.

Thanks for link to report on steam forum.

Yes, I was wondering whether Steam launcher still runs after crash, thanks for clarifying that.

Personally I think this is steam issue, but I have nothing concrete at this point, so will keep open

Ah! Steam is still working then, as normally. And recognizes that Blender was closed, so I can just open it up again.
But from my Support experience, I would agree. The question is just - how does Steam have such an impact. Overlays and everything Steam related is deactivated.

This is working fine in 3.5 steam on linux.

@ThomasDinges : can you check on Steam Windows?

@PratikPB2123 I've checked it with the newest release and wasn't able to reproduce it with 3.6.0 installed and started with Steam.
